What do I like about cryptocurrency?
Let us look at what I like about cryptocurrency. The first is the cheaper and faster money transfers. Transfer of money is cheaper and faster when done with crypto. It operates on the peer-to-peer system and that enables anybody, anywhere to make and receive payments. Money is transferred with the speed of light to anywhere and at any time in the world.

What do I not like about crypto?
Price volatility: the value of cryptocurrencies fluctuates, it is not static. This makes it a high-risk investment. One is therefore advised to invest only what he or she can bear the loss when things go awry.
High energy consumption for mining activities: Cryptocurrency mining is a very energy-intensive process that calls for a lot of processing power and electricity.
Usee in criminal activities: It is difficult for the authorities to track down any user by their wallet address or keep an eye on their data because cryptocurrency transactions are highly private and secure.
